Saint,
you dont have a sin nature....as the REAL You, is Born again.
The real you is the born again, into God's Spirit, as "One with God and Christ".
That is the REAL YOU, and not that body that is on this earth.
So, what you have, if you are sinning and confessing = is a dead man issue, that Paul said is crucified with Christ.
And that Dead man.....has been separated from the "new Creation", by Spiritual Circumcision.
(Colossians 2).
So, that NEW Man, the BORN AGAIN.... is the ONLY MAN, that God ever sees, once you are born again into : "ONE with God and Christ".
So, what about that flesh?
Ok, let me show how you get this.....>"Jesus always gives me the Victory", as your discipleship.
See that?
That is Paul talking about existing in the Right mind, walking in the Spirit or.... ""as many as are perfected".
Paul teaches this After all that stuff about....>"""'that which i would do, i dont do, and that which i dont want to do, i do""".
Remember that part? As that is all you ever hear from Legalist Pastors and Popes and Ministers.
They always STOP at the part where Paul talks about being a Discipleship Failure.
But if you KEEP READING.......Paul eventually explains that He came to understand how to exist in : = "Jesus ALWAYS gives me the Victory".
And here is a KEY., as its Jesus who gives this Grace that we are to EXIT within... as this is: "walking in the Spirit".
Now, you dont get this by prayer, you get this by BELIEVING correctly and existing IN the Grace of God, at all times, in your MIND as its in your Mind of Faith where all the power of Christ, is LOST or found.
Its all about believing correctly, or not.
See, everything with God is Faith//Believing based, and Spirit based, and never self effort based.
Listen...
All that God gives us is a GIFT....>Never is it earned or kept.
When Jesus says..>"apart from me you can do NOTHING"......is not a myth.
As its being apart from HIM, is why Christians fail and struggle with lust, and sin and confess.
Its because they are APART from Him... and in their own power the Law's power of dominion to cause you to sin more, wins every time.
And to be IN THERE is to be found trying to do right, and trying to be good....and trying not to sin.
See.....all That is how you separate yourself INTO your own Striving and self effort which disconnects you from God's Grace...and its God's Grace which IS the DELIVERANCE.
See that Reader?
It like this..... when we are trying our best to be.....we always fail to be......but when we exist as we are, in our believing, then God's Grace empowers us to have the Victory.
Listen....You are not stronger then the Law's dominion, and when you are under it, you are not "abiding" in Christ, which is the "apart from me", Christian failure situation.
Here is a Key...
Paul Said..."be a follower of ME".... and no other disciple tells you this, because no other apostle was taken "apart" and into a place for 3 yrs, where JESUS Himself personally taught Paul all the Church Doctrine, Justification by Faith, everything about "Spiritual Gifts"....everything about how to choose a Deacon, or a Bishop or Pastor......etc, etc, etc.
So, its from PAUL you learn how to BE a real disciple, because its from PAUL you learn how to walk in the Light.
This is why in 2nd Peter, .. Peter said that Paul's letters were equal to the Torah... they are "Scripture".
And that is Peter, describing Paul's Letters, long before they became all the Church Doctrine, and 73% of the New Testament.
See that?
Saint, there is no other way that God will have it done.
Jesus gave it to Paul, and Paul gives it to US and we do it, or we fail.
That's the bottom line.
A born again child of God MUST become a disciple of Paul, to become "the fullness of the Stature of Christ" on Earth.
There is no other way to be perfected in your faith and within your understanding of How to walk in the Spirit.
So, now... what about that sinning....
Ok, to begin with, there is NO SIN "in Christ"....and that is you...= The Born again New Creation as you are found "in Christ", if you are born again, Reader.
Born again......not just water baptized.
Also, as God created the born again as "not under the Law, but under Grace".... there is no Law's dominion over you, if you are born again, as you are not under the Law, you are "under GRACE"...but you can change this by wrong believing.
See,.... GRACE has its own Dominion, just like the Law has its own Dominion, and a person is under the dominion of one of those at all times.
So, the way you stop committing works of the flesh...as that is how Grace defines "sin".... not the Law,= as the law defines them as SIN and you as a "sinner".
But when we are not under the law, the law has no dominion or authority to title us as sinners or our carnal behavior as sin.
You can go to Galatians and find where Paul lists all those carnal deeds, and he does not call them sin, he calls them "works of the flesh"... and a few include fornication, witchcraft.. etc........all that stuff that people do.
So, how do you stop sinning?
Well notice this verse...>... "the power of SIN....is the LAW".
See that? That is the power of sin......so, to break the power of sin, is to exist NOT UNDER THE LAW, but under Grace.
=That is KEY>.
Now how do you EXIST, there........Well, here is the thing, Reader, .. you can be under the dominion of Grace, while you are exiting under the dominion of the Law.
You can be born again, Yet, you are under the dominion of the Law....and to be there is to cause the power of sin, (which is the Law) = to cause you to want to sin more.
The Law, and trying to keep it........all self effort to try to be accepted by God or to stay saved..... will cause the Law's dominion to enflame your flesh and you will sin MORE.
Now all this that im teaching you Reader..... sounds spiritual, and that's because it is.. What im giving you here is HOW to exist as : Hebrew 13:9 And you have to do this, for LIFE.
Listen, all of this that im showing you are the RULES that apply in the Kingdom of God, where we the born again, actually exist.
But, if we dont abide by the rules that operate the KOG< then we exist under the law's dominion on earth, and the law "is the power of Sin".= and that is why you are sinning and confessing and can't stop.
So, you have to stay out from under the LAW,,,,,in your BELIEVING< and Theological Understanding......which is to REST in the place where the dominion of Grace, empowers you to have "victory" that Paul talks about, which He had to do, also.
So, we follow him, and we find the same Victory in Christ.
When we follow Paul as he teaches us to exist IN GRACE, then we are abiding in "the vine".
Now, take all this basic Hebrews 13:9 and Pauline Theology teaching im giving you and apply it AS "fallen from Grace".....as that is the STATE of a person who is born again, and is back under the dominion of the law....which Paul defines as : "who has bewitched you that you OBEY NOT THE TRUTH," and are now back in the "FLESH."
Being in the FLESH = is when a believer has left faith in Christ to keep you saved and always at peace with God, and are now fallen down back into "good works" and "commandment keeping" or anything that is a self effort to try to stay in fellowship with God, and most especially try to keep themselves SAVED.
Backsliding, is more then just living in a state of dead faith......its also to try to keep yourself saved.......So, when you BELIEVE you can lose your salvation.....you have stopped trusting in Christ to keep you saved , and are now trusting in YOU. = That is "falling from Grace".
So, when you find the born again person who is teaching that you can lose your salvation, then they are revealing to you that that they are all that Paul has Described. = Fallen from Grace, and under the dominion of the law, and back in the Flesh.
Its also a fact that an unsaved person will teach the same, because they are also, under the dominion of Law.
